Officers were called to the intersection of St. Clair and Lansdowne avenues just before 3 a.m. for a report of an injured person, police said in a post to X.

Police have not released any suspect details or disclosed the cause of death. The age and identity of the victim also remain unclear.

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has written to Gov. Gen. Mary Simon, imploring her to 'use your authority to inform the prime minister that he must' recall the House of Commons so a non-confidence vote can be held. This move comes in light of NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh publishing a letter stating his caucus 'will vote to bring this government down' sometime in 2025.
